Oh gawd ..that all sounds familar.
As for the dawn chorus .. little cheep cheeps would be fine but not the incessant cooing of the arrogant peckers !!!
I guess it helps us living in the country. We've got owls back now and jeez can they screech when hunting mice. Two doors away a guy just got a load of chickens with a dawn crowing cock. There was much tut tutting about how irritating it would be but tis but nothing compared to bleeding pigeons that as you say will never shut the truck up.
But I could sleep through a nuclear war. Must be a Man U fan thing
